Which relations are functions? Select Function or Not a function for each graph.
Question
Answer:
Answer:Graph 1 and 2 are functions but graph 3 and 4 are not functions.Step-by-step explanation:1. The first graph is of a straight line, which passes through the origin(0,0) and point (1,2).Therefore, the equation of the straight line is y = mx {No y-intercept since the graph passes through origin}Now, putting x = 1 and y = 2 we get, m = 2.So, the equation becomes y = 2x which is a function because we will get one value of y regardless of the number of values of x.2. This is a graph of a parabola having the vertex at (1,0) and axis parallel to the positive x-axis.Now, the equation of the parabola is (x - 1)Β² = 4a(y - 0) = 4ayNow, this graph also passes through (0,1) point.So, (-1)Β² = 4a, β [tex]a = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]Therefore, the equation is (x - 1)Β² = y, which is a function because we will get one value of y regardless of the number of values of x.3. This is an equation of not a function x = |y| i.e. x = y for y β₯ 0 and x = - y for y < 0 i.e. for one value of x we can have more than one output, that means more than one y values.4. This is a equation of a circle having center at (0,0) and radius = 2.Therefore, the equation is [tex]x^{2} + y^{2} = 4[/tex] which is also not a function i.e. for one value of x we can have more than one output, that means more than one y values.Therefore, graph 1 and 2 are functions but graph 3 and 4 are not functions.
